I’m DeAndra!

I’m an illustrator, graphic designer, storyteller and teacher based in Washington D.C. I’m currently writing my first graphic novel as well (soon we can add “author” to my long list of titles!)

No matter the project, my work is always bright and energetic with an imaginative flare. I especially love drawing people, joy filled celebrations, and lots of colorful quilt patterns.

I’m passionate about visual storytelling and find ways to incorporate it in everything I do. Weather it’s illustrating a book or designing a brand guideline, storytelling is the most effective way to connect with an audience of any kind.

Before my freelance career, I received a BA in Fine Art (Graphic Design Concentration) from the University of Montevallo. Go Falcons! When I’m not working, I’m usually reading, writing, or attempting to learn another new language!
